I DID IT! Yes, this is a TOTAL vanity!

I have to share -- I took my last final as an undergraduate at 8 a.m. this morning.
I graduate Saturday, cum laude, with a BA in Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology. I'm 35, and this was a return to school as a homeschooling mom of twins :)
I'm just so happy! And I start grad school next week LOL
Just thought I'd share! I have no regrets over having put off the "college experience" -- I am a much better student now than I was as a "kid" -- and I can't imagine not having been home with my babies when they were babies :)

Congratulations!!
I went back at 45, got the BA, then an MA before I turned 50. It was a wonderful experience.
IMO, college is wasted on the young. The older students really do well.
To: twinzmommy
Congratulations. Hopefully the accomplishment of finishing your degree part-time will come close to the feeling of achievement and accomplishment for being a good parent. There is nothing more rewarding and also more painful than being a parent.
